Can dogs and
cats live in perfect harmony in the same home? People who are thinking about adopting
a dog as a friend for their cats are worried that they will fight. A recent research
has found a new recipe of success. According to the study, if the cat is adopted
before the dog, and if they are introduced when still young (less than 6 months
for cats, a year for dogs), it is highly probable that the two pets will get along
swimmingly. Two-thirds of the homes interviewed reported a positive relationship
between their cat and dog.
However, it wasn't
all sweetness and light. There was a reported coldness between the cat and dog in
25% of the homes, while aggression and fighting were observed in 10% of the homes.
One reason for this is probably that some of their body signals were just opposite.
For example, when a cat turns its head away it signals aggression, while a dog doing
the same signals submission.
